Hi John,
Good to hear from you. I am sure that the S. junonia from Mexico come from Yucatán, a well-known locality.
I think that Pat Bail wants reliable data on Scaphella junonia from Texas. Although Encyclopedia of Texas Seashells has it listed, the data is not-at-all reliable. I am one of the authors for the huge Texas A & M publication on the Gulf of Mexico biota of which you speak; however, we did not include Texas in the geographic distribution of S. junonia because we are yet to find reliable data.
Cordially,
Emilio

Dear Emilio,
The shell auction site shellauction.net had three S. junonia from
Mexico offered for sale in the last auction. Maybe Pat would like to
look there for data? I cannot vouch for the accuracy.

Hi Pat,
I have never collected Scaphella junonia in Texas. The farthest west
was one specimen at 28º00.86'N, 92º27,56"W, which is still
Louisiana. It has a very interesting orange coloration (i.e., S. j.
form johnstoneae to the max) but it was collected dead. I will be glad
to send you an image if you think it will be of interest.

Hi Volutist fellows,
Are they reliable records of Scaphella juniona living in the Texas
and east Louisiana waters?
In the other way, does it cross through the Mississipi delta ?
Thanks. If this eastern population exists, photos of specimens will
be highly appreciated.
